Surprised to see Hagler-Hearns wasn't a bigger pick!

Gatti vs ward 1 and 3, Castillo vs Corrales, Hagler vs Hearns, Leonard vs Duran, Forman vs Lyle, lots more to choose from just a few personal favourites.

Hagler vs. Hearns, Castillo vs. Corrales, Arguello vs. Pryor. Benn vs. Barkley. When people start to watch boxing it is usually the straight forward fights which get them interested. Showing them Pernell Whitaker might not get them too interested.

bowe - holyfield 1:

great displays of inside and range fighting by both men, unbeliavable skill from both, very fast pace and good stamina from both men, lots of punches landed by both men, and the 10th round.

Gatti vs Ward 1. Flawed fighters with great hearts and action oriented styles.

Duran v DeJesus II & Gomez v Pintor, (Hagler/Hearns - Reg Gutteridge Commentary ONLY) for the violence.

Benitez/Hearns for a pure boxing masterclass.
